we wouldn't be facing this now. I miss the day of the gross line, but that's hard to find anymore, and if you do find it, even then sometimes they try to cheat you and make it a line with no margins .. sheesh (okay, I exaggerate a tad, but only a tad).

we wouldn't be facing this now. I miss the day of the gross line, but that's hard to find anymore, and if you do find it, even then sometimes they try to cheat you and make it a 100-character line .. sheesh (okay, I exaggerate a tad, but only a tad).
OMG. Good for the MT who stood up for herself. nm

What's greedy is when people
are always thinking about what they can GET rather than what they can GIVE. Gimme, gimme, gimme......
No, it IS that they're greedy! These people want
ALL the accounts! At all costs! They think by 'dominating' the industry by taking as many accounts as they can get, that it makes them a better company. But how do they make a profit with those lowball bids? Off the backs of the MT.
Greedy, greedy, greedy, GREEDY!
If that is not what she meant, and she was just talking about greedy business people, then...
why did she feel the need to say that the business person was Arabian? If she was just talking about greedy business people, then why would his nationality matter?
See my point?
transcend used to be good but they got too greedy -
too many Indians, too much crappy voice recognition that is not even close, a horrible platform that has multiple problems, line counts that are always a hours to a day late (reminds me of another company where no matter what I did I could never get over 1000 lines over the required minimum counts), and the nastiest ROMs in the business. You can have your transcend.
Look, I don't think TransTech cheats, but I think what they do is...
and please don't Fed express me a threat to sue - I will refuse it. What I think they do is change the dictation on you, a decent account and then you get 90% ESLs. Sorry if you don't like that but that is what I think, I am entitled to my opinion without the threat of being sued, although I am curious about the blanked out line count on Ex-Text. Instead of threatening to sue people why don't you find out what the problem is?

Patricia Neal had to repeat that to Michael Rennie's robot to stop it from destroying the earth.
MedQuist DocQScribe cheats?
I heard DocQScribe is a bad platform to work on and you get cheated on your lines. Has anyone heard? I am about to start with this platform.
The best co. ever! Good work, good people, good pay, good bennies.

Good company, great people, good benefits.
Affordable insurance. Good luck!
I know JLG and they are a good company with a good group of people
I joined JLG about 9 month ago and I am thrilled with the experience that I have had. Although the company has been around for 20+ years, a group of good industry veterans who know how to operate fairly to both employees and clients have joined the company in the past year. I followed my manager from another giant company.
I have also worked on this account and it was plauged with problems from the start. The hospital required the account to be implemented in a matter of days, there were technical issues and the hospital management staff was new and the employees were mad because transcription had been outsourced. Personally, I won't miss this client but good luck to those that get it.
There is plenty of work at JLG and I have already been advised on my new assignments
He is GREEDY!!!
From his name, he is not an American born citizen. He's helping their poverty. They speak EXCELLENT ENGLISH?? LOL, LOL!!!!!!!!!
GREEDY GREEDY GREEDY
I cannot BELIEVE you would expect a Christmas gift from your employer. I have been in healthcare for 30 years at various institutions and companies and have NEVER gotten a Christmas gift or bonus...
GREEDY
I agree with you. This What's in it for me attitude is disheartening. How many of us think of giving to or doing something FOR our employer? I am just grateful to have a job in this economy. That is my Christmas present.
oops...not about GREEDY but... sm
My subject line looks like I'm saying Who isn't greedy? LOL ! My post is referring to the Acusis CEO not being an American. (Whether or not he's *greedy* remains to be seen.)
WHO'S THE GREEDY? LET'S GET REAL!..SM
And MTSOs don't have greedy CEOs?? Who pushes outsourcing, VR, MT pay cuts, etc? Not the hospitals! The AAMT, et.al. have been around a long time before the MT industry went sour. And who is the greedy middleman who saw a fast buck to be made with MTs? Not the hospitals. (Guess who the middleman who's making that buck is.) Does it makes sense that hospitals would pay their other employees the going wage for their respective positions and have a hand in undercutting only the MTs. They (hospitals) have no direct say in our salaries. Sure, they will try to obtain the most cost-effective contracts, whether MT, cleaning personnel, cafeteria workers, etc. Who wouldn't? Do you hear their employees blaming the hospitals when they're not paid prime wage? They're making top $$$. Let's put blame where blame is due!
You state that if hospital CEOs weren't so greedy, the poor MTSOs could pay their MTs more. DO YOU HONESTLY THINK THAT, IF THAT WERE THE CASE, THE MTSOs WOULD PASS ON THE EXTRA BUCKS TO THEIR MTs??? Really? Don't you think they'd put it in their own greedy little pockets?? ( If you're not a MTSO yourself) ... think about what makes more sense!
I don't think MTSO's are greedy
I think some may be greedy, but many others are probably trying very hard to juggle variable workloads with variable staff.
I know. I am an MT now, but was an MTSO - it's not nearly as easy as people might think.
We have to remember not to paint them all with the same brush...
Good people
Great benefits, insurance - 2 weeks vacation. Rarely hear from anyone, they just let you do your work.
So you DO expect something - even a card. GREEDY !!

Fortunately, not all companies are so greedy that they
use VR to cut the line rate for MTs. Hopefully these experienced MTs who make more money doing straight transcription rather than the pay cut that comes with VR will find a better company to work for. For those like you who apparently never made that much doing straight transcription & enjoy VR, then more power to you, but why freak out on those who don't want the pay cut? Let them find a company who isn't trying to screw over the MTs by cutting their line rate for the same amount of work.
Which companies aren't that greedy? nm

Now that the greedy corporations who offshore
our work have driven down our wages, not to mention risking patient safety, it really makes me rethink/regret my career choice. This used to be a great job.
It's not that they are greedy, they are bidding on jobs to low
The one company I worked for literally bid 7 and 11 cpl for a VR account and were only paying the MTs 4 and 8. That is the real problem. These docs/hospitals want rock bottom rates and there are so many MTSOs out there competing for these accounts that they are bidding us all into the poor house. JM2
All the big (which means GREEDY!) MTSOs
there was some way to blow the whistle on these guys and either get the rules for the MTSO industry changed, or else have these oinkers put out of business entirely.
Only problem is, the big greedy fish are
or undercutting them so badly they can't compete. And when you finally wipe out all the competition, what do you have?
A MONOPOLY.
Jealous? These are good people ...

You see - all the good people have left OSI
She was super. She was treated very very badly at OSI. We will all be in better shape very soon as long as we can get another job before they are all taken. I think alot of people are leaving Medquist and they are going to be grapping some of the available jobs too. The old saying- Time is of the essence.
Thank you for your support. I know who you are. :)
Good grief people....
If I could make a list about all that has gone wrong at MQ within the last 2 years, I would be her forever!!!
Look what greedy, inept management and lack of

It's a really good way to annoy educated people, though. (nm)

Good! Great people to work for!

Good god - what is wrong with all these MTSO people?
The more accounts of abuse, lies, bait-and-switch, harrassment, intimidation, and other downright skullduggery these outfits pull on their employees, the more obvious it becomes that the MT business as a whole is descending full-tilt back into the Dark Ages. Next will come the floggings and beheadings.
I hope Debbie "outs" the entire greedy -nm

Yes, they are a decent company. Different personalites, overall good people. nm

Question for people at DSG. Are you having enough work and for those on DSG1, do you have good
sound on your accounts. I think DSG2 is overflow from MQ. Am I correct on that. I had heard the sound is not as good. Can anyone let me know anything about this. I would appreciate it.
What's greedy about it? Have always received xmas gifts/bonus as employee

Good accounts, great people, plenty of work. sm
I'm past that "honeymoon" stage of the first few months that another poster mentioned. I still find them to be the best for me. Never run out of work, always there for questions, including timely responses, great people (QA and otherwise).
I'd highly suggest contacting either your supervisor or Jane (as she offered) about lack of work. As you should see on the daily reports, there is plenty of work out there.
Good luck & I hope it works out for you.
good people who all go to Hawaii while making you work every weekend. nm
....
And you are no longer a hiring manager and probably lost out on a LOT of good people
because of how you handled it. HMMMM??
Decent company, good people, pay on time, work low sometimes. nm

My job is working out splendidly, I wouldn't say big bucks, but good pay and nice people. sm
I am just looking for something to do in the evening and weekends. I am going to the job during the week daytime hours. I miss transcribing as it is not transcribing. Thanks for your concern. But, yes this job I am working at during the day is a breath of fresh air compared to trying to sort through transcription companies, trying to figure out how they pay, by the character, by the 65 character count line or gross lines. I really am enjoying the people the place too. I would recommend trying an out of the house job for everyone on this board that can!
RE: I've been with Transform for 2 months and so far, so good. Nice people to work with, (sm)
pay is on time, direct deposit, etc.
good guesses, but none of what you stated in your post....i rest my case though, you people
ARE TRULY NASTY.......nothing short of a JERRY SPRING remake here....i simply said that SoftScript was wonderful and so far, i've been told i'm a joke, insulted, called names, etc.......now lets see if anyone has anything nice to say......as if that were possible on this board.............
I love the company -- great people, good tech support, sm
good benefits. The pay could be more, but at least there is a production incentive tier that is not too tough to achieve. Overall, I would say this is probably one of the best places I have ever worked. If the no work situation continues, I guess I will just have to call them and ask for a secondary. Everyone in the office has always been very helpful and supportive. I just get nervous when it is not a holiday or anything and no files are available. That is just my little thing, I guess. I still would not hesitate to recommend the company to anyone.
Hope this helps.
Most people get lucky and get good accts. I was also one put on an acct that had me leaving para

This job is only good for extra pin money for people that have other regular income coming in.
It may end up being a good job for people that are experienced and on social security and have other investments now for some extra money. Would never want to have it to pay all bills. No way.
It is a SUPER FINGER reference .. DANE COOK PEOPLE... good grief.
Amazing you wasted those brain cells analyzing what didn't need analyzed. TIME WELL SPENT! geesh.
Not just this week, a long term problem. Nice people, good benefits, but
